  • Lifting the Veil on Iowa Piercing Jurisprudence and Suggestions for Reform
    LIFTING THE VEIL ON IOWA PIERCING JURISPRUDENCE AND SUGGESTIONS FOR REFORM Matthew G. Doré ABSTRACT Like courts in other states, Iowa courts employ a multifactor test for veil piercing that evaluates business owners and their entities based on undercapitalization, commingling of finances, failure to observe formalities, and the like. Yet Iowa precedent assigns no weight to any of these factors, offers few insights concerning their meaning, and gives even less guidance on the factors’ relationship to the justifications for piercing. This Article outlines a path for bringing greater order and predictability to Iowa’s piercing jurisprudence, starting with a taxonomy based on legal scholars’ consensus that courts are justified in piercing when those controlling the entity do one or more of the following: (1) use the corporate privilege to evade obligations imposed by other legal schemes; (2) engage in fraud, misrepresentation, or similar deceptive behavior to obtain corporate credit; or (3) engage in abusive self-dealing that improperly subordinates creditor claims to corporate assets. If one first identifies the asserted policy justification for piercing in a particular case, this Article explains, it becomes easier to assess whether traditional piercing “factors” such as undercapitalization, commingling of finances, or failure to follow formalities warrant application of the remedy and why. Accordingly, this Article recommends Iowa courts require piercing plaintiffs to identify one or more of the foregoing policy justifications for the piercing remedy before determining whether any traditional piercing factors support granting that relief. This Article also challenges Iowa’s tradition of leaving piercing decisions to juries. Piercing is an equitable remedy that judges should administer without juries, this Article argues, but even if piercing is a legal claim, a decision to grant or withhold the piercing remedy is a lawmaking and policymaking exercise and thus a legal question for the court.

    UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA 251st Commencement ONDAY, MAY 14, 2007 The University of Pennsylvania KEEPING FRANKLIN'S PROMISE In the words of one elegiac tribute, "Great men have two lives: one which occurs while they work on this earth; a second which begins at the day of their death and continues as long as their ideas and conceptions remain powerful." These words befit the great Benjamin Franklin, whose inventions, innovations, ideas, writings, and public works continue to shape our thinking and renew the Republic he helped to create and the institutions he founded, including the University of Pennsylvania. Nowhere does Franklin feel more contemporary, more revolutionary, and more alive than at the University of Pennsylvania. His startling vision of a secular, nonsectarian Academy that would foster an "Inclination join'd with an Ability to serve Mankind, one's Country, Friends and Family" has never ceased to challenge Penn to redefine the scope and mission of the modern American university. When pursued vigorously and simultaneously, the two missions — developing the inclination to do good and the ability to do well — merge to help form a more perfect university that educates more capable citizens for our democracy. Penn has embodied and advanced Franklin's revolutionary vision for more than 267 years. Throughout its history, Penn has extended the frontiers of higher learning and research to produce graduates and scholars whose work has enriched the nation and all of humanity. The modern liberal arts curriculum as we know it can trace its roots to Franklin's innovation to have Penn students study international commerce and foreign languages.
